Turnaround at Phnom Penh (PNH).
Transit desk unmanned and transfer security also.
No OLCI or return check in so I had no BP.
Ground staff took my ticket and passport and went away to get it issued landside. They arranged for someone to open up transfer security for me.
Once airside they escorted me into the contract lounge to await my boarding pass. Documents all returned as boarding was 3/4 complete.
No need for me to enter country (requiring visa on arrival), although I had photo and cash just in case.

Turnaround in BIO (Bilbao, Spain), March 30th, 2008
OSLflyer and I arrived on SK4641 from OSL on schedule, 1 hour and 5 minutes before schedule departure of same aircraft. I already had my boarding pass, printed by SK in OSL, for SK4642.
I wanted to try the JK lounge (quite good, I thought, given the size of the airport), so we needed to go through arrivals and then back in through security. Security could not accept our SK issued boarding passes, so we had to go to the JK check-in desk to get new ones from JK, who handles SK in BIO. There was no queue, so we only lost 3-4 minutes. There was a separate business class desk, so I am sure it would have been quick even if the airport had been busy. By the time we had cleared security, we had probably been out of the plane around 10-12 minutes.^
From security it is no more than a two minute comfortable walk to either gate at the airport, so this was an easy connection. Time enough for some drinks in the lounge.
I am unsure if we would have been able to board with our original SK issued boarding passes, or if we would have had to through arrivals even if we didn't need/want/have time to visit the lounge. If it is possible, it would be impossible to miss an immediate turnaround. Exit the aircraft, go up the finger, enter the terminal building, and turn 180 degress. Easy peasy! If you're quick off the plane, you'll be ready to board at the gate before all the passengers have exited the aircraft.
The airport looks great, by the way. The new main terminal was opened in 2000 and is designed by Santiago Calatrava. It could use a thorough clean(s)ing, though...
BIO is a great airport for turnarounds and transfers!
I wanted to try the JK lounge (quite good, I thought, given the size of the airport), so we needed to go through arrivals and then back in through security. Security could not accept our SK issued boarding passes, so we had to go to the JK check-in desk to get new ones from JK, who handles SK in BIO. There was no queue, so we only lost 3-4 minutes. There was a separate business class desk, so I am sure it would have been quick even if the airport had been busy. By the time we had cleared security, we had probably been out of the plane around 10-12 minutes.^
From security it is no more than a two minute comfortable walk to either gate at the airport, so this was an easy connection. Time enough for some drinks in the lounge.
I am unsure if we would have been able to board with our original SK issued boarding passes, or if we would have had to through arrivals even if we didn't need/want/have time to visit the lounge. If it is possible, it would be impossible to miss an immediate turnaround. Exit the aircraft, go up the finger, enter the terminal building, and turn 180 degress. Easy peasy! If you're quick off the plane, you'll be ready to board at the gate before all the passengers have exited the aircraft.
